eBlaster Mobile (for Android)

I?ve long suspected that my colleague?Eugene Kim?faked his weekly sick days. Without fail, he calls in sick every Thursday (NB. Wednesday night is Ladies' Night here in New York City) and leaves me to cover all his menial responsibilities. Tired of his truancy, I became determined to gather evidence of his fake illnesses and expose him to HR.?Fortunately, there's an app for that.

eBlaster Mobile?will cost you a pretty penny ($69.95/year for one license, direct), but it's one of the more comprehensive mobile surveillance tools in the parental control category of mobile security apps. Brought to you by PC surveillance expert SpectorSoft, the folks behind Spector Pro 2011,?this tool lets you discreetly track every call, text message, website visited, and GPS coordinate on your target's Android device; it captures even more on a BlackBerry device, such as BBM conversations and Instant Messages sent via Yahoo! Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, and Google Talk. These cell phone activities (called "Activity Reports") are emailed to you at a frequency and detail you can adjust, though not as much as I'd like.

Parental espionage
eBlaster Mobile is marketed towards parents who want to monitor their children?s mobile usage, particularly in an era where they have to worry about sexting and truancy and what not. Spector Soft insists that its customers inform their child that the program has been installed, but of course for my purposes, I haven't. Unless Eugene roots his Android, he won't be able to find a monitoring process in Task Manager.

Getting started
To download eBlaster Mobile, you have to load Spector Pro's Website on your mobile browser, as it isn't available in the Android Market yet. So one day while Eugene was away from his desk, I grabbed his Samsung Galaxy Nexus, input my email address at the prompt, installed the app, and quietly put the phone back in its place. This app is made for stealth; there were no obvious traces of eBlaster Mobile anywhere in his Task Manager or startup screen, so Eugene had no idea it had been tampered.?
